HAP Lettings are delighted to present this stunning 5-bedroom home that the current owners have refurbished to offer a quite stunning country home with accommodation stretching to around 4,000 sq., ft. The photographs do not do the property justice and viewing would be strongly advised. The property is accessed through stone gates from the A81 and from there up a tree-lined driveway for some quarter of a mile and arriving at Highwood opening from the trees into a clearing.
The property has been beautifully upgraded to include a new roof and a double height extension offering a glass balcony from the master bedroom taking in the peace and tranquillity of the lovely garden and terrific Campsie Views. Our client maybe flexible with furnishings, entry dates and rental amount depending on type of let/term of let.
Internally the property is beautifully presented and has been finished to a luxury standard of high quality fittings and fixture. The cool contemporary interior captures an ambient mood of a traditional house with solid fuel burning stoves with a boutique finish of a very high-class hotel. Internally the property comprises in full of a very welcoming hallway with downstairs cloakroom and walk-in storage cupboard. There is a dining sized kitchen complete with a range of wall and base units and range cooker as well as doors that open out onto the garden and a wood burning stove. Directly from the kitchen is a beautifully presented sitting room with hardwood flooring, a quite magnificent 30` family room with sliding doors out onto a sun terrace and from there to the garden. The family room has a focal point gas fire with the accommodation downstairs completed by bedroom five with an en-suite shower room. A staircase takes you to a galleried upper landing where four further bedrooms can be found, one with a dressing room and en-suite bathroom with the new master bedroom housed within the extension with clever use of picture windows all round and again opening doors onto a raised terrace with glass frontage taking in the stunning views. The master bedroom has a dressing room as well as a further walk-in study. In addition, the property has double-glazed windows and oil central heating. To the outside, as briefly mentioned, there is a quite stunning garden stretching to around 1.6 acres. The garden has beautiful mature lawns and is surrounded by mature woodland trees and there is a fantastic double car garage with full office accommodation set above, ideal for use as a separate apartment. The garage has full electrics, heating and shower/toilet facilities.
Situated within a unique position, the original part of Highwood dates back to the 1800s and indeed was one of the Lodge houses to the Georgian house within this estate. The property is set within around 1.6 acres of grounds and surrounded by beautiful mature trees yet only minutes from the town centre of Milngavie. One has the feeling of being away from it all in the middle of the countryside with a plethora of wildlife for neighbours. The property borders open farmland which is owned by Scottish Heritage and from there has panoramic views down the Campsie Fells to Dumgoyne.
